SOCHI, Russia (AP) Norway's only NHL player has been ruled out against Russia.
New York Rangers forward Mats Zuccarello isn't playing Tuesday because of a hand injury.
The setback hurts Norway's chances of competing against the host Russians in the preliminary round of the Olympic hockey tournament.
It was not immediately clear when Zuccarello, a two-time Olympian, was hurt at the Sochi Games or if the injury will affect his ability to play in the NHL next week. He leads the Rangers this season with a career-high 43 points.
